That's correct. It does always return UTC time, I would imagine for privacy reasons. You could make the time zone configurable in your script and adjust the times manually if you need to display local time.

/**
 * Return real time in your country
 * @param {*} date time in map `date.now()`
 * @param {Number} offset UTC time 
 * @example TimeZone(date.now(),7)
 * @returns 
 */
function TimeZone(date, offset) {
  const utc = date.getTime() + (date.getTimezoneOffset() * 60000);
  const adminTime = new Date(utc + (3600000 * offset));
  let hours = adminTime.getHours();
  const minutes = adminTime.getMinutes();
  const seconds = adminTime.getSeconds();
  const amPm = hours >= 12 ? 'PM' : 'AM';
  hours = (hours % 12) || 12;
  return `${hours}:${minutes}:${seconds} ${amPm}`;
}
ex:
const Time = date.now()
const UTC = 7

TimeZone(Time,UTC)
